Definition
Self-propagating disadvantageous situation in which a solution (specially the one that does not addresses the root cause) leads to another problem whose solution, in turn, leads back to the first problem in a more severe form. For example, an attempt to avoid a confrontation to an unreasonable demand may encourage even more unreasonable demands. Also called vicious cycle. See also virtuous circle.
